One Hundred Ways to Beat the Ghost King [Onmyoji]

Chapter 58

"Any questions?"

Jiu Tun's tone was vaguely reluctant, "If there is any problem, you must ask him to solve it?"

"Of course I asked Seimei-sama to help me divination the position of the Kusanagi sword." Shimizu held up the fragment in the other hand.

"...For things like divination, wouldn't it be the same to let Huang come? That guy has been here for so long, so he should do something useful."

He really didn't want to see that guy Abe Seimei.

Shimizu blinked his eyes and explained warmly: "Of course Araki can help us speak, but isn't the Kusanagi sword stored in the shrine and guarded by humans? It seems that Master Seimei presided over the festival at the Winter Festival not long ago. I think this matter Better to ask him."

After a long while, Jiu Tun nodded slowly and did not refuse again, but his face was still a bit stinky.

Shimizu guessed that he might also have a grudge against Abe Seimei because of the ghost girl Hongye, so he resisted going to see him.

After all, seeing a first love and a rival together wouldn't make anyone feel good, would they?

The past has long passed, Shimizu didn't want to poke his pain, so he didn't mention anything about Hongye.

At dusk, taking advantage of the night slowly falling, the two quietly sneaked into Qingming's mansion.

Jiu Tun did not deliberately hide his evil spirit. Abe Seimei had already sensed their arrival in the courtyard, sitting on the tatami and waiting patiently for the two, and three cups of hot tea had already been poured on the table.

"Lord Qingming, long time no see." Falling into the courtyard, Qing Shui shouted with a little surprise.

It's been a long time since I haven't seen Abe Seimei, he is still as calm and refined as before, smiling lightly and nodding at her.

Taking off the cloak to block the wind and snow and hanging it aside, Shimizu was about to call Jiu Tun to go in with her, but found that he did not know when he was standing far away in a far corner, leaving only a back view for them.

... When the temper is stubborn, it is really impossible to pull ten cows.

Raising his eyebrows, Shimizu stepped into the room, and slowly sat across from Abe Seimei.

Jiu Tun looked around for a few moments, and his raised heart relaxed slightly.

Very well, the two people he was most worried about and didn't want to see seemed to be here...

Seeing her sitting in the banquet, Shuten's expression changed, and he approached the two of them invisibly, staring at them from the corner of his eye, and listened to their conversation.

"Why did you two suddenly come to me?" Abe Seimei asked straight to the point.

Shimizu was not too polite, and only took out the jade-white fragment of Kusanagi sword from the girdle.

"This is... a fragment of the Kusanagi sword?" Abe Seimei's eyes moved slightly, and he saw the real body of the fragment at a glance, "Why do you have this thing in your hand?"

"Master Seimei, two days ago, Oeyama was attacked by Ezaki Junpei and Kusanagi Ken."

Shimizu Masaki recounted the grievances and entanglements with Ezaki Junpei in detail, and told him about Kusanagi Sword's control of Ezaki Junpei's attack on Oeyama.

The more he listened, Abe Seimei's face became more serious.

He often felt a little uneasy in the past few days, but now it seems that something bad happened.

"Sword Kusanagi will never easily get along with monsters..." Abe Seimei frowned tightly, his deep eyes filled with deep thought.

"Then... Master Seimei is also sure that this fragment really belongs to the Kusanagi sword?" Shimizu couldn't help but look at the jade white fragment on the table.

How did Ezaki Junpei get the Kusanagi sword from Atsuta Shrine?

"Is it convenient for you and Shuten to wait for me here? I have to confirm one thing now, and I will tell you the answer when I come back." Abe Seimei stood up, and the blurred and slanted shadows under the light covered the clear water.

Qing Shui nodded, "Please trouble Master Qingming."

After finishing speaking, she watched Abe Seimei leave the courtyard anxiously.

After Abe Seimei left, Jiu Tun stepped aside and sat beside her, muttering, "Let's just say it, this guy may not be more reliable than Huang."

Qing Shui couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Jiu Tun, can you stop being so hostile to Master Qingming, he can be regarded as my mentor."

"...Wh, what kind of mentor." Jiu Tun said sullenly, "What about my uncle? I have also tried my best to guide you in practicing witchcraft during these days in Dajiangshan."

"Not only that, but I also take good care of you on the bed, letting you do whatever you want... How can you not compare to that bastard, but when you saw him, you threw me down."

At this point, he paused, and murmured invisibly: "Don't you women like this kind of gentle, seemingly powerless man?"

"..."

"Obviously that guy is already in his twilight years, how can he compare with my uncle's heroic appearance..."

"Stop! Stop!" Hearing his words getting more and more outrageous, Qing Shui twitched the corners of his mouth, and said helplessly, "What kind of flying vinegar are you eating? Lord Qingming is not only my teacher, but also my benefactor. Respect him, your thinking is really crooked to the Antarctic."

"Then what about Yayoi Abe?" Jiu Tun said in a sullen tone, his faint eyes were like two purple will-o'-the-wisps, and the back of her neck felt chills, "You are going to save him even if you don't hesitate to sacrifice your spiritual power." people……"

He wanted to slap that kid to death for a long time, that kid should be glad that he didn't show up today.

"You reminded me, why didn't you see Yayoi in the mansion?" Qing Shui glanced subconsciously after hearing the words.

"..."

Jiu Tun suddenly felt that a string in his mind had broken down unbearably, he folded his arms and twisted to one side, sulking alone.

The men in Abe's family are not good people, Abe Seimei is like this, and so are the cubs of his descendants!

Qing Shui glanced at him helplessly, for a moment he had nothing to do with him, this idiot was so jealous.

She was thinking about whether she should coax her with gentle words, when she felt a familiar breath approaching her, and her shoulders and neck were firmly stopped by a pair of hands.

Feeling the sudden weight on his back, Shimizu's body swayed forward twice unsteadily, holding the hand around his neck to pull Hongye down.

"Although I haven't seen you for a long time, you don't have to be so enthusiastic..."

Her old waist is about to be crushed!

Speaking of which, Qing Shui feels that he has been inexplicably weaker recently, maybe he will feel back pain, and he will be more tired than usual when practicing.

Could it be that you are too unrestrained in a certain matter...

She was thinking wildly, when a terrifying shout instantly brought her thoughts back to reality.

"Hongye!? You, you..." Jiu Tun's whole body tensed up, his eyes fixed on a Hongye who was flying on Qingshui's back and refused to get off, and he lost his voice for a moment.

The monster he least wanted to see, the monster he feared the most, suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, making his tense heart twitch.

When he came back to his senses, Jiu Tun couldn't hide his nervous glance at Shimizu, his eyes were complicated.

Seeing him, Hongye slightly restrained her smile, and said hello softly, "It's been a long time since I saw you."

Jiu Tun stared at her stubbornly, his eyes glued to the hands of the other two who had not let go, subconsciously said: "Do you know each other?"

"That's right, when I lived in Master Seimei's mansion, Hongye was with me all the time." She explained.

Shimizu knew from the game plot that Shuten and Hongye had such an unexplainable past, so he hardly mentioned her and Seimei in front of him.

Hearing these words, Shuten's expression suddenly became strange.

As soon as Shimizu's voice fell, Hongye glanced at Jiutun inexplicably, and whispered in Shimizu's ear.

"I heard the news from Lord Qingming that you are in the mountains and rivers, but I didn't expect..." Hongye's tone suddenly became weird, "You really got mixed up with this poor guy?"

Bad, bad? ?

Jiu Tun's expression on the side was a little bit stiff.

Seeing his ugly face, Qing Shui said subconsciously: "It's bad? It's, it's okay... It's just that I'm a little self-willed and stingy occasionally..."

She is often sulking at Hoshiguma Doji wandering around her, and she is also jealous of Seimei, who is now a beautiful uncle. Even Yayoi Abe can remember things that have passed so long better than her.

But apart from being jealous and narcissistic, in Shimizu's eyes, Shuten is perfect everywhere.

"Willful and stingy...?" Jiu Tun uttered a few words inaudibly, and suddenly felt a deep blow in his heart.

Hongye snorted softly, and continued to whisper in her ear, "Compared to him, I'm still more optimistic about you and that child Yayoi."

"By the way, Yayoi left the Kyoto Prefecture two months ago, don't you know? He went to Nazhishan to find that guy Ootengu..."

"What did he go to Nazhi Mountain for?" Qing Shui was startled.

The two frowned and whispered at the side, completely ignoring Jiu Tun, who sat there stiffly, staring at Hongye, and then slowly shifting his eyes to Qing Shui's face.

Red leaves in crimson clothes and Shimizu in light green kimono, the red and green of the two are intertwined, like green bamboo and roses, so that it seems that he is the redundant one.

"..."

Seeing the unexpected friendship between the two, Jiu Tun suddenly felt that his worries when he came were unnecessary.

A moment later, Abe Seimei's figure reappeared in the courtyard, Hongye tactfully hid her figure, and gave her a reluctant look before parting.

"Seimei-sama!"

Abe Seimei nodded, glanced at the low pressure and expressionless drunkenness, and somehow felt a little creepy.

He withdrew his expression, approached Shimizu and said seriously: "As I expected, the Kusanagi sword fragments deposited in the Kyoto Shrine are gone."

Hearing this, Qing Shui wondered, "Shards of the Kusanagi sword? Isn't the Kusanagi sword in the Atsuta Shrine?"

"Yes or no, it's a long story." Abe Seimei eased his brows and eyes, "The Kusanagi sword has suffered a lot of damage during the nearly thousand years of upheaval. The real sword body is stored in Atsuta Shrine That’s right, but I found a fragment of the Kusanagi sword in the body of the monster in the underworld crack decades ago, and enshrined it in the Kyoto shrine after the incident.”

"Excalibur has the healing ability of self-healing. There is no news of anything wrong from the Atsuta Shrine. I think the sword that attacked Kyoto should not be the original Excalibur."

Hearing this, Jiu Tun's expression flashed, and he said seriously: "You mean, the fragments of the Kusanagi sword stored here gave birth to independent consciousness?"

Abe Seimei nodded slightly, only this explanation made sense.

Kusanagi Sword Soul, who gave birth to self-awareness, wanted to exist independently of the Excalibur itself, so he escaped from the shrine.

"So that's the case, that guy dared to commit crimes on the top of Dajiang Mountain, because he wanted to devour the demon power?"

"Can you tell where that bastard is now? You must settle the account with him!" Jiu Tun asked in an unhappy tone, ignoring Shimizu's light stare at him.

Abe Seimei picked up the pieces of the Kusanagi sword on the table, closed his eyes and did divination for a while, before saying, "He went south."

Jiu Tun raised his expression, "That guy was seriously injured and his sword power was damaged, so he shouldn't be able to escape very far, but it's hard to detect his specific position without the demon charm on him."

Hearing this, Abe Seimei thought for a while, bit his finger to draw a talisman with blood, and walked into the inner room for a while before coming out.

Handed the fragment of Kusanagi sword that was entangled with several talisman papers to Shimizu, "Shimizu, take it well."

Qing Shui took it subconsciously and looked at him suspiciously.

Abe Seimei explained: "I used talisman paper to treat the fragments in a special way. Now you only need to use the divination technique I gave you to find the object, and you will be able to sense the direction of the Kusanagi sword."

"Thank you, Master Qingming." Qing Shui's eyes lit up, and he saluted solemnly.

Her divination skills are far inferior to Qingming's. Now with Qingming's help, even if Liu Ji stole the No-Yao Talisman, she can still find the other party's location.

"You're welcome, I should be the one to thank you." Abe Seimei smiled helplessly with a bit of apology, "The loss of the Kusanagi sword fragment is my responsibility, but I can't leave for a while. I can only ask you to help retrieve the fragments."

Qing Shui nodded slightly in understanding, the various forces in the court and government were fighting fiercely, and soon it would be the change of Changde in history.

"But don't bother you, Yayoi is now at the foot of Mount Nachi. I will tell him with the technique of sound transmission for thousands of miles, and let him prepare in advance to meet you in Mount Nachi, and attack back and forth to catch the Kusanagi sword."

Jiu Tun's eyes darkened, and now he gets angry when he hears this name.

Abe Seimei told Shimizu many things in a gentle voice, and the two sides bid farewell to each other when it was late at night.

On the way back to the palace, Jiu Tun sighed deeply, and said with some headache: "I originally thought that I would just grab the Kusanagi sword by myself."

He was worried about letting Qingshui go with him, but without Qingshui now, it would be difficult for him to discern the position of the Kusanagi sword.

"Don't think that way, no matter what I do, I won't be separated from you." Even if Seimei didn't draw this talisman for her, she would definitely be by Shuten's side.

Pausing, Qing Shui held his hand, and said in a gentle voice: "Husband and wife are one body, no matter where you go, don't even think about abandoning me."

Hearing these words, the lines of Shuten's face softened, he held her firmly with his backhand, but he softly snorted and said, "When I think of you meeting that boy Yayoi Abe again, I will be angry. "

"...But even if I didn't see him, you still lost your temper tonight..."

These words reminded Jiu Tun of the phrase "willful and stingy", and he explained with a somewhat unnatural expression: "...I didn't lose my temper."

"But you have always been against Mr. Xun Qingming."

"...I'm just worried that you'll be angry."

"Huh?" Qing Shui frowned, and looked at him suspiciously, "Why should I be angry?"

Jiu Tun hesitated for a while, and then said with a guilty conscience, "The matter between me and the ghost girl Hongye...I'm worried that you will be angry with me when you see her."

"Forget it, who knew that you and her have known each other for a long time." Fortunately, he still had a headache along the way, how should he explain it to her.

Unexpectedly, not only did the two have a good relationship, but they also spoke ill of him in front of each other. Thinking of this incident, Jiu Tun felt a little stomachache.

"..."

Qing Shui was stunned. It turned out that this guy was not depressed because he would meet his first love and rival in love, but because he was worried that after seeing Hongye, she would be unhappy because of her past...

Seeing her stunned, Jiu Tun panicked, hugged her in his arms, quickly disappeared into the mountains and rivers, and said in an awkward tone: "Don't look at me with that kind of eyes!"

"My uncle assures you, I only have you in my heart..."

Hearing these words, Shimizu couldn't help laughing out loud anymore, wrapped his arms around his neck and buried him in Jiu Tun's chest.

"What an idiot..."

The author has something to say: with a heart of daily life...but the reality is cruel.

Lazy cancer attack, who will beat me up.

*****

Jiu Tun: Love rivals are all over the world, men, women, young and old, my uncle is suffering...

Shimizu: Put down your weapons and speak well.
